Like I mentioned in the spreadsheet, Three, blocks of coal coke are more fuel efficient than pieces of coal coke. Not that coal veins aren't common, super dense and/or that cooking coal coke takes a ton of effort, but saved fuel is saved fuel. Another backpack that *might* be worth investing in, possibly, is a Builder's Backpack. It stores a random mish-mash of building blocks, stuff like pressure plates and doors and whatnot, but more importantly it holds Torches. 15 stacks of them, and backpacks can auto-fill items in your hotbar. Magnum Torches are still a ways away, and while Chandeliers (Magnum Torches that trade effective area for style points, basically) are available as early as LV they're not necessarily the cheapest of items to spam. Torches are, and will always remain, cheap. A note on processing ores this early: Hammering ores in-world does not ore double, and also does not benefit from any Fortune enchant (such as a Thaumium hammer, if you happen to find six Thaumium early on). As such it's not worth doing for most ores, since smelting the ore directly gives the same yield as smelting the pure dust form, and without using a ton of hammer durability. Of course there are exceptions. First, some ores (most notably Redstone and Coal) *will* gain an increased yield from being hammered as opposed to smelted directly - you can check this ingame by looking at the ore's recipes in NEI. The yield you get from crushing an ore in-world is the same as the yield from a Forge Hammer, which is the automated version of crushing ores in-world. And yes, there are Steam Forge Hammers. Second, smelting pure crushed ore (so only crushed iron ore, not crushed limonite or crushed magnetite) yields ten nuggets instead of one ingots. This is an increased yield, technically, but the added step of having to turn the nuggets back into ingots makes this process not worth the extra yield. The exception to that is iron nuggets, since your initial source of Wrought Iron is smelting iron nuggets into wrought iron nuggets, and combining that into wrought iron ingots. Smelting crushed iron ore into nuggets thus saves you a step of having to convert iron ingots into nuggets, and gives you a slightly higher yield to boot. Third, it should be noted that while a Steam Macerator will double ores there's two situations where you don't want to use it over a Steam Forge Hammer, despite the ore doubling. One is for "gem" ores, such as coal, diamonds, lapis, etc., since the macerator will always output crushed ores and turning crushed ores into gems in the steam age is difficult if not impossible. Not great for keeping your coke ovens fed. Two is that the steam macerator is slower than molasses, whereas a forge hammer is super fast. Consider whether the extra ore yield is worth the extra processing time, because ores are plentiful in any case. Inefficient to be efficient 🙃. It's 72 calcite for your *first* Bricked Blast Furnace. From that point forward you can start wallsharing them, making the second and third one cheaper than the first, the fourth one cheaper still, and from there it alternates between cheaper and even cheaper. Calcite is also a perfect example of macerate vs. forge hammer - takes more time to process, but it's not plentiful to find, so macerating is worth it. But iron? Literally everywhere, and you'll likely get more digging up other ores. Perhaps forge hammer is good enough. If you have a stone brick based Roguelike Dungeon nearby there's a chance that it'll contain a secret room which has some furnaces and hoppers inside. A very nice and worthwhile find early on, but don't underestimate the danger of roguelike dungeons this early. They are packs with mobs wall to wall, especially the lower levels, and 1.7 health regen does not allow you to step back, eat a loaf of bread and regenerate your arm in five seconds. For solar boilers it's better to wait on High Pressure solar boilers as they produce more steam per silver ingot than regular ones, and silver at this point is not easy to get. That said there is a quest to craft a regular solar boiler gating the quest for high pressure solar boilers, so crafting one to grab some sandwiches and coins from the quest rewards isn't a bad idea. Especially because early on you're going to be wanting more steam anyway, so might as well put the regular solar boiler to work while it matters most. Tough Spiders...reflect melee damage? That wasn't an Infernal one with Vengeance, although it did have some particle effects. Not sure what happened there in all honesty, but I think lesson thoroughly learned regardless: Do not engage Tough Spiders. They live up to their title. It's very worthwhile investing in some kind of fluid tank in order to store steam, likely a Railcraft tank, in order to have a battery of steam available. Note that Railcraft tanks will auto-output if the valve is in the bottom layer, so you don't necessarily need a GT pump to extract the steam from one. You're definitely going to want multiple bricked blast furnaces, but note that you don't have to craft all of them in the Steam age. LV machines will make crafting them much easier, so you can only craft one or two (preferably two) in the Steam age and craft the rest after you've made some LV machines. BBFs also have other uses than cooking iron into steel and won't be replaced until a bit into MV at the earliest, so don't be afraid to craft a bunch of them. They'll come in handy, one way or another. Ore Finder Wands will accept either ores or ingots, and detect the relevant veins. They can also be used to search for Lootgames or particular stone types if you're searching for either of those. Note that Ore Finder Wands do stop working once you reach the Moon and later dimensions, but by that point you should have *long* renamed your old Ore Finder Wand to Random Block Finder Wand. Another useful tip with covers is that you can cover things like steam pipes, and they'll stop burning you. That is if they ever *started* burning you. Not sure why Three gets a free pass on touching boiling hot steam pipes, but it's not like the game isn't taking revenge over it 🙃. You can use plates or, more efficiently, foils as covers. That random player head that I'm assuming Three got as a quest reward from a Lootgames information quest, by the way? Keep a hold of it. Player heads are one of the best items to place on a Witchery Altar, and barring your own horrible deaths that's the easiest one to get. Bricked Blast Furnaces only accept charcoal, coal, or coal coke. Blocks of coal coke is definitely the fuel you want to use for cooking steel, since it smelts faster than non-coke fuels and blocks of course have that little extra fuel efficiency. Also worth noting is that while running a BBF spawns a bit of lava inside it, not something you can pick up with a bucket but something that can set nearby wood on fire. So do be careful with that. Something very worth noting is that making Alumite in the Smeltery is basically a waste of resources. You can craft Alumite Dust to get a 5:2:2:8 ratio of alu:steel:obsidian:alumite, as opposed to the smeltery's 5:2:2:2 ratio. This more efficient method does require obsidian dust, which requires a steam macerator...or xp buckets to "craft" obsidian dust? Huh. XP buckets...you can get from a seared tank and an xp drain, so yes, that is actually viable. Okay, learn something new every day. In any case avoid alloying Alumite in the smeltery if you want a get a higher yield from your precious resources.
Also worth adding that for early obsidian it's really worthwhile to scavenge through villages and take obsidian tool parts from tinkers huts. Also, you can convert obsidian blocks to ingots 9:1 in an alloy smelter, so one block is basically enough for all your early-game alumite needs.
Maybe the steam squasher would be good for automatically combining fuel? I greatly prefer the better backpacks backpacks, they're bigger although they don't do any smart pickup or restock. They do take steel though, and can be upgraded later. The forestry backpacks can be upgraded, but it requires b*es. The steam grinder really is busted. I think that processing ten nugget ores like iron and copper is valid, but only if you steam grinder (crushed ore) -> steam oven (nuggets) -> steam grinder again (tiny dust) -> combine (dust) -> steam oven again (ingots). IE, combining nuggets directly in an alloy smelter is waaaaay too slow even if you automate it with hoppers, but even doubling the grinding and smelting steps will process ores pretty fast. Solar boilers seem hard to make pre-twilight forest because you can only get silver from small ores. They're fine, but I never bothered. The XP bucket method is kinda useful, for instance I used it to get some sulfur pre-nether, but it's too expensive to really be good. I have a couple other tips: You can find damascus steel (and other good materials like aluminium and stainless) in roguelike dungeon chests. You can't get a worthwile amount for gregtech progress this way, BUT you can get a bit to upgrade backpacks and tcon tools. For example, damascus steel tool rods give an astronomical 5x dura multiplier. Sadly I think they require an MV extruder, but it's still good to be on the lookout for these things, and damascus steel in particular can be found in loot bags, village chests, and thaumcraft obelisk chests as well. A little bit later when you have the LV lathe and LV arc furnace, you will want to make steel rods 1 -> 2 from ingots, but sadly the lathe doesn't quite do this. It recovers the second half of the ingot as steel dust, but this takes just as long to smelt into steel as iron in the BBF. However, I have discovered a much better way using several more steps: the steel dust can be melted in the tcon smeltery and then cast into railcraft steel chestplates. These can then be fed to an arc furnace to recover steel ingots. You could also use the tcon steel to make more fluid solidifier/extruder shapes.
@@eagle653 Something to note about adding a diamond though is it increases your durability too IIRC and higher durability is slower leveling, early on it's good to bring a bad pick axe and your tool station to repair it to grind out some modifiers
@@ka_killers2088 Just starting out? PC doesn't really matter since you probably want to get a few vanilla playthroughs and smaller mod packs under your belt to learn the basics before hopping into huge ones. Later on though, a half decent graphics card or better and 8-16 gigs of RAM (higher isn't always better when running mod packs as java likes to fill up your memory and lag when you have more allocated, *but* you can host a server and connect your client to it to take some strain off of your client, giving both some decent RAM)
He has, it's entertaining, lots of progression compressed into decent sized clips without alot of mess in between like most lets plays. Very well presented and commentated.
To be honest if you want some more entertaining videos, the format of people these days in Minecraft is to just blast you with content in a sub 10 minute video, so it’s not that these videos are the most “entertaining” or “attention-grabbing” it’s that it’s content that is actually digestible without giving you a lobotomy out of sensory overload
Been into Minecraft for 8 years now, played several modpacks myself and watched tons of minecraft series, but never caught interest in a mooded series to watch. I am so hooked by this series and I cant even tell why, so pleasing to watch you play this for some reason!
I think its because Threefold respects the two things. Minecrwft isn't always fun to *watch*, and our time. Think back to the first episode and how much editing he had done to it. We would still be watching him do monotonous actions like collecting gardens if he didn't cut certain segments
Newish subscriber here, the way you do modded is really refreshing compared to the go-go-go most others do, I enjoy both but this is great with how different it is 😊
Hi three Loving the series You were the one who got me into gtnh And I’m really enjoying the different let’s plays I’m watching on RUclips (yours included) Keep up the good work
I discovered you with Divine Journey 2 and I'll be honest, I've been equals parts mesmerized and envious of your ability to build bases, so I really appreciate you spend your time explaining your process! In exchange ill give you a little advice I discovered with this last big update: you should really invest in botania once you unlock the Twilight Forest. Mana steel GT tools have a ridiculous amount of durability! Comparable with vanadium steel, or even better I believe! I personally recommend the beegonia for mana production. With the village apiarys, hoppers and few item pipes you can let it produce and forget about it. Also you can forget about durability with the armour. Love your videos and stay Greging!
This series is great so far. I stumbled on your channel with no knowledge of GTNH and I still don't know much but learning the mod pack and watching you play had been very entertaining. Keep up the good work!
Respect the commitment to the grind, I've been playing GTNH for a month or so now, while watching a bunch of your series, and yet you're already on more time played!
Episode 3 and we are already approaching 50hrs game time crazy! I do enjoy that you show this from time to time, gives a sence of perspective about the amout of time and effort you put in each episode. Keep up the flow, really loving the vids!
I case you didn't know , for someone just having fun , you'll be having a lasting imprint on many people young n old. Thanks for letting us njoy the insanity that is Modded Minecraft. I've been lurking since Interactions and what a journey it has been so far. Please never stop lol. Much love from Holland
Right on! I'm glad you left a comment, I understand many people will just lurk every so often. I would like to extend my appreciation for that. I really love making these episodes, I'm glad others find a tiny piece of value in them too. Have an amazing day, and thanks for watching :D
So I just found you, watched your first two episodes of this series and then went back and started watching your previous series - the Inferno one was watched entirely, very fun. Subscribed and am looking forward to both your new content and all the older content I get to enjoy as well! Great commentary, editing, and play style. Awesome stuff!
In awe of how you manage to make *the* most crafting table heavy modpack to ever be made fast-paced and entertaining to watch. Even more of a marvel than having the patience to go full Gregtech.
Love how you structure your videos and love watching them man! You motivated me to really try and get going with RUclips as well as got me back into modded minecraft. Keep it up bro, I turned that bell on so keep 'em comin 👌
If you hover over Items in JEI or your Inventory there is a Hotkey for searching Items in nearby Chests. Useful for finding things in a storage room. Default Key is 'T' I think.
Upload 30 of telling Threefold to keep up the great work! I was so happy to see you come back to this pack after you discussed ways you wished you would have done things better. As well as how much you had left to do. This series is gonna be amazing!
If you put a bucket of water then lava in the tinkers system via the duct it'll make liquid obsidian at least in the new versions, hope it works like that in the old ones too
Oh god that spider is so strong :o the blast furnace is so much trouble to make omg. Also i cannot imagine how much difficult it could be by adding pollution. Great videoo Love it
I wish I already found a diamond vein too... Last step before the macerator which is needed for one of the blast furnace dusts I believe. It's such a grind lol. Awesome series btw! I started GTNH recently because I enjoyed your first season so much :D
SPEEDY SMELTERY TIP: Not sure if this still works, but when I tried GTNH I was a ble to speed up the smeltery immensly by scrolling items too and from the smeltery. I would have multiple pieces of wood and just scroll back and forth while mousing over them. I believe it caused a update everytime I did so which basically skipped the waiting time for each increase in the heat bars.
tip if you press "t" on an item in jei it will highleght chests that have that item. if you press y on a machine in jei it will highlight machines that have been placed.
Yes and then imagine he is even 'çheating' with chunkloading thru FTB utils.. which isnt in the OG pack. In the og version you can start chunkloading, when you reach HV assembling.
This pack looks so hard, I wish i had the patience cause it seems so fun. 49 hours and so little to show for it compared to packs ive played lol. Your so entertaining, keep up the good work!
i'm just getting into GTNH myself and the fact that the piston quest is named "The Hell Is That?" sums up very accurately how i feel looking at the obscene micro-crafting in this modpack. it's so bad. i love it. yes, i'm a bottom, but i don't see what that has to do with it >.>
very excited for this series! :D also, damn. some entire modpacks take 80h and you're already at 40h and in episode 3 lol. GTNH sure is grindy, so please, don't overwork yourself
You can use the NEI search in highlight mode (doubleclick) to filter ore veins. Not nessesary now, but useful for the future, when you have LOT of veins on map.
The battle pan from tcon could really help you in the early game, especially since it starts off with knock back, and is really useful for kiting mobs. I would also like to add a bit about the satisfying sound.
I think it's funny that a hammer won't really change much for us as a viewer but for Three it saves him so much time lol Hope he gets the hammer next episode!
In my early game I treated GTNH like an adventure/mining pack and basically spent like 40+ hours of play time just prospecting stuff, mining it, and looting dungeons. I died soooo many times in the dungeons, but I got some pretty nice loot and enough resources that I was basically set up to not have to mine again till I got a miner. Definitely not the best way to do things but it worked for me! I am loving seeing the early game again three, makes me want to restart too! Haha, not sure how I'd live without AE though... But honestly you move so fast you'll probably be caught up with me again in the next month and a half anyway 😂. Great episode, can't wait for the next one!
Out of all the steps i struggled most with the bookcase. Couldn't find any anywhere and just had to do without the worktable until I get to the nether (ran out of horses for glue)
I skipped the issue with pickaxe leveling down into steel by making a queen's gold pickaxe earlier in my playthrough lol. Had that thing leveled up to mine obsidian so I could go straight to alumite... but I didn't realize it was so much more efficient to make it in dust form 😭
21:20 I'm glad they decided to change that about quests because spending whatever many hours to craft one machine just to notice that the quest didn't count because you didn't hold all the ingredients on your inventory at once seemed like a very weird design choice to me, specially later on once you have access to AE2.
It's been a long time since this video was posted, but if you see the comment, I'd appreciate a reply. I've been wanting to play a tech-oriented mod pack lately, but the problem is that I get bored very quickly because it's either incredibly difficult or very complicated, and by complicated I mean I can't figure out what to do. Do you know of a mod pack that can guide me through missions perfectly? I'm thinking MC Eternal, people on Reddit are praising it a lot, but I don't know, I hate Create mode, more tekkit-style machines are nice, Tinker is very good too, if you have any suggestions I'd appreciate it if you'd share them. Also, I really like this series, this kind of incredibly difficult mod packs are not for me, but it's really nice to watch, and it's much better because you know what to do :D My English is not very good, sorry if there is a place in my comment that is not understood, thanks in advance, I subscribed.
You should invest in a steam grinder soon. Also, burning diamond blocks in boilers isnt a horrible idea. It allows you to forget about refilling fuel for hours at a time
Im loving the series but im really missing the shaders from inferno. i think it would be really nice if you could add a shader at least in the early to mid-game, while it doesn't turn the game way too laggy
Wish I could binge these :( Bro I just found you and love the way you make your videos! I usually watch Sparklez or Chosen. Well I just found someone else :)

Solar boilers seem hard to make pre-twilight forest because you can only get silver from small ores. They're fine, but I never bothered.
The XP bucket method is kinda useful, for instance I used it to get some sulfur pre-nether, but it's too expensive to really be good.
I have a couple other tips:
You can find damascus steel (and other good materials like aluminium and stainless) in roguelike dungeon chests. You can't get a worthwile amount for gregtech progress this way, BUT you can get a bit to upgrade backpacks and tcon tools. For example, damascus steel tool rods give an astronomical 5x dura multiplier. Sadly I think they require an MV extruder, but it's still good to be on the lookout for these things, and damascus steel in particular can be found in loot bags, village chests, and thaumcraft obelisk chests as well.
A little bit later when you have the LV lathe and LV arc furnace, you will want to make steel rods 1 -> 2 from ingots, but sadly the lathe doesn't quite do this. It recovers the second half of the ingot as steel dust, but this takes just as long to smelt into steel as iron in the BBF. However, I have discovered a much better way using several more steps: the steel dust can be melted in the tcon smeltery and then cast into railcraft steel chestplates. These can then be fed to an arc furnace to recover steel ingots. You could also use the tcon steel to make more fluid solidifier/extruder shapes.

Love your videos and stay Greging!
This series is great so far. I stumbled on your channel with no knowledge of GTNH and I still don't know much but learning the mod pack and watching you play had been very entertaining. Keep up the good work!
Respect the commitment to the grind, I've been playing GTNH for a month or so now, while watching a bunch of your series, and yet you're already on more time played!
Episode 3 and we are already approaching 50hrs game time crazy! I do enjoy that you show this from time to time, gives a sence of perspective about the amout of time and effort you put in each episode. Keep up the flow, really loving the vids!
I case you didn't know , for someone just having fun , you'll be having a lasting imprint on many people young n old. Thanks for letting us njoy the insanity that is Modded Minecraft. I've been lurking since Interactions and what a journey it has been so far. Please never stop lol. Much love from Holland
Right on! I'm glad you left a comment, I understand many people will just lurk every so often. I would like to extend my appreciation for that. I really love making these episodes, I'm glad others find a tiny piece of value in them too. Have an amazing day, and thanks for watching :D
Found your channel through the modpack motivation video, and I'm so glad I was able to catch the beginning of a new series! Keep up the good work :D
So I just found you, watched your first two episodes of this series and then went back and started watching your previous series - the Inferno one was watched entirely, very fun. Subscribed and am looking forward to both your new content and all the older content I get to enjoy as well! Great commentary, editing, and play style. Awesome stuff!
the episodes are getting better and better, nice organisation of content. keep up, im loving this serie
In awe of how you manage to make *the* most crafting table heavy modpack to ever be made fast-paced and entertaining to watch. Even more of a marvel than having the patience to go full Gregtech.
Love how you structure your videos and love watching them man! You motivated me to really try and get going with RUclips as well as got me back into modded minecraft. Keep it up bro, I turned that bell on so keep 'em comin 👌
Rewatching this series while playing in my own world! What a blast, thank you @threefold
Three, you're awesome for doing GregTech again, really loving this series!
I love the way he makes the gregtech grind look really satisfying!
When you were struck by lightning I actually dropped my morning coffee all over my table LOL that got me too
Blame that creeper haha He really did scare me too :D
New Episode! Love the series so far.
the mention of barrels here makes me smile. reminds me of the old times in modded, before the modern drawers and such
That intro has me feeling some type of way, and I like it. Nice
You can put a diamond on top to skip the mining level update to your tool.
If you hover over Items in JEI or your Inventory there is a Hotkey for searching Items in nearby Chests. Useful for finding things in a storage room. Default Key is 'T' I think.
Upload 30 of telling Threefold to keep up the great work! I was so happy to see you come back to this pack after you discussed ways you wished you would have done things better. As well as how much you had left to do. This series is gonna be amazing!
I'm liking the instrumental music, fits the minecraft aesthetic more than the songs with vocals imo. Loving the episodes!
If you put a bucket of water then lava in the tinkers system via the duct it'll make liquid obsidian at least in the new versions, hope it works like that in the old ones too
Oh god that spider is so strong :o the blast furnace is so much trouble to make omg. Also i cannot imagine how much difficult it could be by adding pollution. Great videoo
Love it
Just found your channel. Loving this series so far. You've got a great attitude!
Love this series so far. Great editing, and good choice of music
fk i cant wait to binge watch the next 2 and a half days worth of this series!
I love the music playing in the background of timelapses
It feels like an eternity
to wait for new episodes? because yes
Loving the improved background music, especially the ambient bits!
I wish I already found a diamond vein too... Last step before the macerator which is needed for one of the blast furnace dusts I believe. It's such a grind lol.
Awesome series btw! I started GTNH recently because I enjoyed your first season so much :D
Glad to see you back on the gregtech grind hope to give the pack ago soon
You’re one of my favorite Minecraft RUclipsrs. Love your videos!
Have an amazing day, I really appreciate your nice commend :)
Loving your content Three! Editing and music is on point!! Keep it up man!
SPEEDY SMELTERY TIP:
Not sure if this still works, but when I tried GTNH I was a ble to speed up the smeltery immensly by scrolling items too and from the smeltery. I would have multiple pieces of wood and just scroll back and forth while mousing over them.
I believe it caused a update everytime I did so which basically skipped the waiting time for each increase in the heat bars.
Somehow I've gained back my interest of Mod pack let's play or is it me that his content is extraordinarily good to watch
tip if you press "t" on an item in jei it will highleght chests that have that item. if you press y on a machine in jei it will highlight machines that have been placed.
20 hours per episode, Gregtech at its finnest
Yes and then imagine he is even 'çheating' with chunkloading thru FTB utils.. which isnt in the OG pack. In the og version you can start chunkloading, when you reach HV assembling.
I love the "timelapse" with the music
I want this bed meme to stay in this channel forever :)
that creeper in the beginning was an awesome encounter unironically, dude was waiting for you
This was a really well made episode Three! I loved the editing and music ;)
Glad you liked it! :D
This pack looks so hard, I wish i had the patience cause it seems so fun. 49 hours and so little to show for it compared to packs ive played lol. Your so entertaining, keep up the good work!
Quick Tip: Pour a bucket of water in your mining holes so you can easily hop into them for later mining
i'm just getting into GTNH myself and the fact that the piston quest is named "The Hell Is That?" sums up very accurately how i feel looking at the obscene micro-crafting in this modpack. it's so bad. i love it.
yes, i'm a bottom, but i don't see what that has to do with it >.>
very excited for this series! :D
also, damn. some entire modpacks take 80h and you're already at 40h and in episode 3 lol. GTNH sure is grindy, so please, don't overwork yourself
You can use the NEI search in highlight mode (doubleclick) to filter ore veins. Not nessesary now, but useful for the future, when you have LOT of veins on map.
Caught up on today's episode while mining for my own calcite... fun times.
ah nice!
The battle pan from tcon could really help you in the early game, especially since it starts off with knock back, and is really useful for kiting mobs.
I would also like to add a bit about the satisfying sound.
I think it's funny that a hammer won't really change much for us as a viewer but for Three it saves him so much time lol Hope he gets the hammer next episode!
I think to an extent it does affect us too, cause him mining quicker means more stuff done in a single video
bro the transition at 14:16 was fire
In my early game I treated GTNH like an adventure/mining pack and basically spent like 40+ hours of play time just prospecting stuff, mining it, and looting dungeons. I died soooo many times in the dungeons, but I got some pretty nice loot and enough resources that I was basically set up to not have to mine again till I got a miner. Definitely not the best way to do things but it worked for me!
I am loving seeing the early game again three, makes me want to restart too! Haha, not sure how I'd live without AE though... But honestly you move so fast you'll probably be caught up with me again in the next month and a half anyway 😂. Great episode, can't wait for the next one!
Yeah the early game is a totally different experience, I'm just trying to enjoy it while we are here :)
Always just in time for my lunch break!
Am I the only one that goes back and rewatched each of these episodes 3-4 times as they progress 🤣 I'm so slow
always excited to become one with greg
I'm taking "We are imprisoned once again down in the mine" out of context
These houses dont even generate carpet. What self-respecting house doesn't have a simple welcome mat?
Another episode - another great afternoon!
Nothing to cope with overwork quite like Threefold videos
yay a new ep of my new favorite mc series lesss goooo
Woooop! New episode!!
awesome content, it was very enjoyable to watch!
Hey thank you, i'm happy you enjoyed the video :D
Upload 31 of telling Threefold to keep up the great work! WOOO! A whole month
GTNH in a nutshell; 14 hours of playtime to get a couple more steam machines and a blast furnace 🥲. Love your videos mate, cheers
Great to watch, keep it up Three !
Out of all the steps i struggled most with the bookcase. Couldn't find any anywhere and just had to do without the worktable until I get to the nether (ran out of horses for glue)
Babe wake up new threefold upload
I just found your channel. Thank youuuuu ❤❤❤
when you said "great success" I literally questioned my sanity
1 hour of youtube = 29 hours of gregtech gameplay
Seeing the Creeper I Almost Had a Heart attack. 😂
Well enjoy your mining :P But the TC Hammer is such a game changer.
I skipped the issue with pickaxe leveling down into steel by making a queen's gold pickaxe earlier in my playthrough lol. Had that thing leveled up to mine obsidian so I could go straight to alumite... but I didn't realize it was so much more efficient to make it in dust form 😭
i loved the timelapse music 🎉
Someday you'll find a POI that'll come with a bed, I believe!
21:20 I'm glad they decided to change that about quests because spending whatever many hours to craft one machine just to notice that the quest didn't count because you didn't hold all the ingredients on your inventory at once seemed like a very weird design choice to me, specially later on once you have access to AE2.
Poor mans blast has come. Steel has come :p
let's goooo new episode!!!
Bobbing my head to his music taste.
Great episode as always!
It's been a long time since this video was posted, but if you see the comment, I'd appreciate a reply. I've been wanting to play a tech-oriented mod pack lately, but the problem is that I get bored very quickly because it's either incredibly difficult or very complicated, and by complicated I mean I can't figure out what to do. Do you know of a mod pack that can guide me through missions perfectly? I'm thinking MC Eternal, people on Reddit are praising it a lot, but I don't know, I hate Create mode, more tekkit-style machines are nice, Tinker is very good too, if you have any suggestions I'd appreciate it if you'd share them. Also, I really like this series, this kind of incredibly difficult mod packs are not for me, but it's really nice to watch, and it's much better because you know what to do :D My English is not very good, sorry if there is a place in my comment that is not understood, thanks in advance, I subscribed.
You should invest in a steam grinder soon. Also, burning diamond blocks in boilers isnt a horrible idea. It allows you to forget about refilling fuel for hours at a time
I believe that 1 diamond block lasts for about 17 hours in a small coal boiler
14:36 NOT THE MACHINES JUMPSCARE hahahahahaha
Three thought we wouldn't notice he left the pipe disconnected and then checked the alloy smelter like 3 times, but we did.
i would be lying if i said your videos weren’t the highlight of my day
Yay! New episode
If you like early game gregtech, you might like terrafirmacraft!
It's super realistic and super tedious lol, but it's kinda fun.
it feels like yesterday when you uploaded your nomifactory series
ah those bedless bed-having houses, such inconvenience
great vid, can't one for the next one
Awesome Video! Love the series! :)
Im loving the series but im really missing the shaders from inferno. i think it would be really nice if you could add a shader at least in the early to mid-game, while it doesn't turn the game way too laggy
Wish I could binge these :( Bro I just found you and love the way you make your videos! I usually watch Sparklez or Chosen. Well I just found someone else :)
Awesome :D
